(3535 kb)Nights In White Satin
The Nits often played this song during concerts and they always played a
beautiful version of it. Usually it was short, but this is one of the most
complete versions I've heard. It was recorded during the In The Dutch
Mountains Tour, but the tape didn't specify the date and location.1987/1988 Dennis

(4842 kb)Frits - Wat Fijn Om Idioot Te Zijn
This is Freek de Jonge's translated version of the Neil Innis' song 'How Sweet To Be An Idiot' from 1973. Freek sang it before at earlier solo tours, but this version with Nits is very nice and deserves to be heard!Amsterdam Dennis Versteeg

(5045 kb)Quarantaine
Recorded at the Frits2 performance. Although it could have used a bit more rehearsal time, this was one of the best new Frits songs. The guitar solo is by Cok van Vuuren.Amsterdam

(5519 kb)Slip Of The Tongue
This song wasn't usually part of the Giant Normal Dwarf Tour setlists.
This version shows that with just three people they managed to play this
song, although there are many better versions from other tours. The fact
that it's very rare for this tour makes up for this. Audience Recording.

(4579 kb)Famous Blue Raincoat
In their last concert of the 20th century the Nits played about 10 Leonard
Cohen covers in the Paradiso in Amsterdam. For this occasion the band was
extended with two female singers, a violinist and an extra guitar player.
This song is Henk's favorite Leonard Cohen song and it gives a good
impression of that evening.Amsterdam

(6122 kb)Frozen Fred
Recorded during the Tent Tour. This song was only played during this tour
and even then it was often omitted, so it's pretty rare. This version is
much more rock-based than on the album.
